Arsenal, Tottenham and Stoke City have reportedly made enquiries about Newcastle's Joey Barton.
Barton has been made available for free transfer by The Magpies after the board's patience finally snapped following his fresh criticism.
Despite the 28-year-old's past, a number of big-clubs are keen on the midfielder, with Arsenal, Spurs and Stoke all interested.
Meanwhile, Bolton manager Owen Coyle was asked on whether he would like to bring Barton to the Reebok and while he confirmed the midfielder is a talent, he stopped short on confirming his intent.
"He's a very talented player. We know that," Coyle told Sky Sports News.
"There's no doubt Joey will have very attractive offers because he's a talented player.
"We'll continue to bring the right players to football club. Hopefully I can have one or two new faces, ideally before the QPR game, but certainly before the end of the transfer window.
"Every manager is in the same boat. We're trying to improve our squads and trying to do the best business we can for our clubs."
